Start with roast chicken for a classic centrepiece. It is easy to prepare and works well for sharing. Add beef and lamb roasts for a more traditional lunch. These options are ideal for a slow, relaxed meal at home.

Include seafood for a lighter option. Buy salmon or prawns for quick, fresh dishes that still feel special. Add ready made mains for convenience.

Easy oven ready meals help you save time while still serving something comforting. Include vegetarian mains for balance. Pasta dishes and vegetable bakes are simple to prepare and serve.

Keep it simple. One main dish is enough to build a relaxed lunch around.

Serve with easy sides like salads, vegetables and bread to complete the table.
